At a Southern California middle school with a largely Latin-American student population, Yolanda (America Ferrera) and Daisy (Camille Guaty) convince new biology teacher Ms. Bartlett (Susan Egan) to become the coach of their dance team. After some early setbacks, the girls rebel against their Juilliard-trained coach's discipline and old-fashioned ideas. But after the girls sneak off and perform in an intramural competition without their coach's knowledge, the two sides must find middle ground.

Before Rocky and CeCe "shook it up," this was how the Mouse network did dance. The dance moves were impressive, the production values were great, and the entire Latina cast was quite good-looking. I've said before that Disney Channel knows how to make telefilms; this is further proof. Content Concerns: Sex: Some of the dance moves were a bit suggestive. 4/5 Nudity: Bare midriffs and off-the-shoulder tops are seen a few times; short shorts/skirts, even more often. 3.5/5 Language: One misuse of God's name. 4.5/5 Drugs: None. 5/5 Violence: None. 5/5 Frightening/Intense Scenes: Some slight emotional intensity. 4.5/5 Other: The girls break school rules at times to get what they want. 4/5 Score: 4.25/5
